Review: Nicely made, simple, safe, and cuts like a charm - When I moved to a new state recently, I had to jettison as much stuff as I could. Some of those decisions I regret, and one was to give away my old Fisker's rotary paper cutter. It wasn't great (maybe a 4-star), but it did the job for years. So of course, less than a year later I found I needed another paper cutter. Picking one proved surprisingly difficult because -- consistently -- 15-20% of all reviews, of virtually all low-cost cutters, are 1-star. They definitely fill you with dread about ordering.. But I didn't want to spend hundreds on a tool I use twice a year. So I finally grit my teeth and ordered this unit. Glad I did! It's very nicely made, very simple, safe to use, and works like a charm. True, I've only just received it, and used it just a little. If it goes sideways in the next year, I'll come back and edit this review. But right now I can tell you that it seems perfectly well made and assembled, it cuts cleanly and at exactly a 90-degree angle, and it's reasonably compact and light. The unit itself was packed in perfectly adequate, yet minimal, fashion (but desertcart overpacked it in a much-too-large shipping box). Recommended for light-to-moderate use, although it probably wouldn't last long in a school or for someone doing serious hobby work making huge batches of cards and the like. (And I have no idea how well it would cut fabric).
Review: Ideal for DIY game card makers/enthusiasts. Super clean and accurate cuts. Read Caveat in review! - 11-19-2023 Caveat: Today I attempted to cut a piece of 1/8" foam core. That resulted in my ruining the trimmer. I don't know how or why this happened, but I hadn't gotten more than 1/4" threw the attempted cut when more than expected resistance caused me to stop. After removing the foam core, I couldn't reseat the blade. Evidently the metal strip on the trimmer (not the blade itself) had a gouge in it that would hang up the blade. There was no way to save it. I tried finding a replacement strip but not having found one, I threw out the trimmer and ordered a replacement. Don't use it on anything but paper... ==================== Original Review ========================================== I recently took up the challenge of creating a board game for my nephews and nieces that also requires a small deck of personalized playing cards. Having watched several informative videos on the subject, I settled on a method where I create 8 evenly spaced on letter sized card stock, which I then laminate and trim to produce 8 individual cards. Based on the recommendations by one You-Tube guru, I purchased the Fiskars Sure Cut Portable Trimmer to facilitate this. But, while researching cutter/trimmers at desertcart, I decided to double down on my tool investment and also purchased this Fiskar's Bypass Trimmer. (I have no idea why it's labeled as "Recycled" - maybe a returned item being resold?) Comparing the effort and the results of both the Fiskars SureCut Portable Paper Trimmer and the Fiskars 01-005452 Recycled Bypass Trimmer to trim the playing cards, the latter has proven itself to be vastly superior in making accurate cuts. My card artwork includes corner marks that assist in lining up the laminated card stock in the trimmers. Unfortunately, the Portable Trimmer’s cutter wanders a bit during cutting and doesn’t truly track with that fine guide wire. The results were good but not perfect. The cards vary a bit in size no matter how carefully I set up the cuts. With a little care in the aligning those index marks along the lower cutting edge, cuts made on the Bypass trimmer were straight and super clean. The cards were virtually identical. In both cases I used the Kodomaru Pro corner cutter. (another invaluable tool for the DIY game card maker!) The deck I produced with the Bypass Trimmer felt like a storebought deck of playing cards. Those cut with the Portable Trimmer? Not so much. This Bypass Trimmer may cost a little more than the Portable Trimmer, but if you plan to use this to make game cards, you'll be glad you spent the extra money.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it cut straight?**
A: Mine does NOT cut straight, rather disappointing

**Q: Could I use this to cut card stock (say three sheets the same thickness as 3x5 cards)?**
A: I would not recommend it but it might work. The blade is sharp enough but you risk the cards slipping a little and then you edges will look bad. I do this to photographic paper but I can cut three manually about as quick and three stacked. Then I don't have to worry about any waste. Cut one card badly and the time it takes and the cost of loosing one card and your better off cutting one at a time. This is a great little cutter and I find a use for it almost every day. I don't know what I would do without it. It's one of the best buys on Amazon. Good luck, I hope this has been helpful.  Robert Wallace

**Q: What are the dimensions of this cutter?**
A: At its widest the broad with the handle down measures 14 inches.  Its length is about 19 1/2 inches long which includes the length of the handle when in the down position..  It stands 2 inches tall.

**Q: Can you take away that clear plastic to hold the paper down?**
A: BTW, yes you can remove the plastic "holder/keeper" from the bottom of the cutter by spreading the "plastic" tabs and pushing through the slots they fit thru 
